Concannon Chardonnay 2004 "Selected Vineyards" wine review by (PB)

Another Boston bargain finding this wine at 2 for $12, mix N match any of several Concannon varietals. The wine is a pale straw color with solid vanilla bouquet, light citrus, lovely fruit and gentle spice. Really nice aromas.

In the mouth though the wine is first pineapply with citrus and solid acids; more vanilla and a touch of maple syrup. One disturbing element which, in light of the price is being a bit picky, but it tastes manufactured like so many inexpensive Chardonnays. But for the price--it was good, so raise a glass manufactured or not.
